Peter Coleman, CEO of Australian-listed energy group Woodside Petroleum, has announced the acquisition for $US3.75bn ($A4.6bn) combined of holdings in two LNG developments from US-based Apache Energy. Woodside will gain a 13% stake in the Wheatstone project offshore Western Australia (WA) and one of 50% in the Kitimat tenements in Canada. The deal will please investors who had been concerned at a lack of new growth assets for the company. At the same time it has, along with allies Royal Dutch Shell and BP, again postponed the roll-out of floating LNG technology at their Browse field off WA
